They are supported and maintained by the amenities fees of the residents of The Villages, meaning Greens Fees are free for all Village Residents." Hope this clarifies the different opinions.
I'm not sure about the quote from the web site, but Janet Tutt has publicly stated that most of the amenities (i.e., exec golf courses) south of 466A are still owned by the developer. This will eventually change when the IRS issue is cleared up and the CDD can acquire them.
